23、amed William E. Hoy stood up to throw the first ball of the World Series. Most people at Crowley Field on that day probably did not remember Hoy because he had retired (退休) from profess-ional baseball 58 years earlier in 1903. However he had been an outstanding player and the deaf people still talk
24、about him and his years in baseball.William E. Hoy was born in Houckstown Ohio on May 23, 1862. He became deaf when he was two years old. He attended the Columbus Ohio School for the deaf. After graduation he started playing baseball while working as a shoemaker.Hoy began playing professional baseba
25、ll in 1886 for Oshkosh (Wisconsin) of the Northw- estern League. In 1888 he started as an outfielder (外场手) with the old Washington Senators. His small figure and speed made him an outstanding base runner. He was very good at stealing bases during his career. In the 1888 major league season he stole
26、82 bases. He was also the Senators leading hitter in 1888. Hoy was clever and he threw right-handed and batted left-handed, on June 19, 1889 he threw out three batters (击球手) at the plate from his outfield position.The arm signals used by judges today to show balls and strikes began because of Hoy. T
27、he judge lifted his right arm to show that the pitch was a strike and his left arm to signal that it was a ball.For many years people talked about Hoys last ball game in 1903. He was playing for Los Angeles of the Pacific Coast Winter League. It was a memorable game because Hoy hit a wonderful ball
28、which won the game. It was a very foggy day and therefore very hard to see the ball. In the ninth inning (棒球的一局) with two men out, Hoy managed to catch a fly ball to make the third out in spite of the fog. Los Angeles defeated their opposition and won the game.After he retired Hoy stayed busy. He ra
29、n a dairy farm near Cincinnati for 20 years. He also became a public speaker and traveled giving speeches. Until a few years before his death he took 410 mile walks several mornings a week. On December 15,1961 William Hoy died at the age of 99.54 In which order did the following things happen in Hoy
30、s life? a. Hoy worked as a shoemaker. b. Hoy began to run a diary farm. c. Hoy played a memorable game in the heavy fog. d. Hoy threw the first ball of the World Series. e. Hoy became deaf.（A）d e a e b（B） e a b c d（C） d a e c b（D）e a c b d55 We can infer from the last paragraph that Hoy_in his late
31、years.（A）was in good physical condition（B） led a relaxed life（C） traveled around the world（D）became famous56 What can be inferred from this passage?（A）Hoy was one of the greatest baseball players in his time.（B） Speaking and listening are not necessary in baseball games.（C） The judge had to study th
32、e hand signals very seriously.（D）Hoys family encouraged him to become a baseball player.56 You can use your Business Telecard International at any card phone in the United Kingdom. Here is some information about making international phone calls.You can now phone almost any country in the world, alth
33、ough in some cases you can only call big cities. When you cannot make direct dialing calls, you can ask the international operator to help you. This is more expensive and takes more time, but it may be helpful if you want to speak to a particular person and no one else, in this case you should ask f
34、or a “person-to-person“ call. Even more expensive is a reverse charge call where the person who receives the call pays. If the international line is busy, you can reserve(留下) a call, explain the number you want and the operator will call you back when the line is free.You can save money by calling o
35、utside office hours, for example, early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays. Remember that the time may be different in the country that you are calling. International time is based on GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). London is on GMT and Moscow, for example, is 3 hours ahead. There is one probl
36、em: change to DST (Daylight Saving Time) for the summer. In the UK, clocks are put forward one hour in spring and put back in autumn, and so London is actually one hour ahead of GMT in the summer. 57 What is the most expensive type of call?（A）Direct dial.（B） Through the operator.（C） Reverse charge c
37、all.（D）Calling outside office hours.58 What can you do if the international line is engaged?（A）Ask the operator to call you back later.（B） Make a “person-to-person“ call.（C） Call back outside office hours.（D）Wait and call again when the line is free.59 When is it cheaper to make an international cal
38、l?（A）10a.m.（B） 5p.m.（C） 11p.m.（D）8a.m.60 If you want to use your Business Telecard International, you have to_.（A）use a card phone（B） phone on Sunday（C） make a direct dialing call（D）pay extra60 Most of the animals have little connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for foo
39、d. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership which is good for both of them. You may see some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites(寄生虫 )on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so be
40、cause they move the cause of discomfort. So although they can live without each other, they do better together.Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot live without each other. This is so in the corals(珊瑚) of the sea. In their skins there are t
41、iny plants which act as “dustmen“, taking some of the waste products from the corals and giving in return oxygen(氧气) which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are even prevented from receiving light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.61 Some birds like to si
42、t on a sheep because_.（A）they can eat its parasites（B） they enjoy traveling with the sheep（C） they depend on the sheep for existence（D）they find the position most comfortable62 The underlined word “they“ in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to_.（A）birds and parasites（B） birds and sheep
43、（C） parasites and sheep（D）sheep, birds and parasites63 We learn from the text that corals depend on plants for_.（A）comfort（B） light（C） food（D）oxygen64 What does the second paragraph mainly discuss?（A）Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence.（B） Some animals and plants develop their
44、 relationship easily.（C） Some plants depend on each other for food.（D）Some animals live better together.64 Computer people talk lots about the need for other people to become “computer literate “. But not all experts think it a good idea.One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees, is David Debut, the
45、 founder of Computer town UK. Though many people see this as a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer, David does not see it that way. He says that Computer town UK was formed for just the opposite reason, to bring computers to people and make them “people literate“.David Debut th
46、inks Computer towns are most successful when tied to a computer club but he thinks there is an important difference between the two. The clubs are for people who have some computer knowledge already. This frightens away non-experts, who want to go to Computer towns where there are computers for them
47、 to operate, with experts to encourage them and answer any questions they ask. They are not told what to do, they find out. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to answer all questions people ask. People neednt learn computer terms(术语). But the e
48、xperts have to explain in plain language. The computers are becoming “people literate“.65 Which of the following is David Debuts idea on the relationship between people and computers?（A）Computer learning should be made easier.（B） There should be more computer clubs for experts.（C） People should work
49、 harder to master computer use.（D）Computers should be made cheaper so that people can afford them.66 We can infer from the text that “computer literate“ means_.（A）being able to afford a computer（B） being able to write computer programs（C） working with the computer and finding out its value（D）understanding the computer and kno
